Hands-down Cowher. Fassel is a close second. You have to grab experience whenever the opportunity presents itself. What would be so rotten about lending the keys to the mansion to Cowher for as long as he wants it? We've already had what amounts to a regime change among the coordinators, of course to a greater extent on the offensive front. These do not seem like Cowher's peeps however (Zorn and Blache), and I agree with one of the contributors on this topic who said it may have been Fassel throwing out strong hints as to who he'd be comfortable with that led to the hire/fire/promotion. You've already lost half of the "Gibbs DNA" as it is with GW's firing. I'm more interested in what we do with the personnel. Cut ties with the aging, injury-prone veterans on defense (Griffin, Springs) and draft that stud DE to make us a more fierce blitzing unit. The West Coast Offense will suit many of our current offensive staff, methinks. Randle El may outproduce Santana in receptions and yards next season. Cooley will remain a fantastic endzone threat. We'll see a new and invigorated Clinton Portis catching short dunks and dinks and spreading defenses out on tosses and sweeps. I am optimistic about our prospects.
